We aim to understand the experience of organizations, government and lived experts to build toward the collective goal of ending homelessness.

In relation to the Municipal Government Act, Municipal Governments are to create favourable zoning for an affordable and equitable approach to dignified density housing within their communities and MPS. Municipal governments are encouraged to offer incentives for affordable developments and/or work in partnership with the provincial government to provide building and oversight subsidies to affordable supportive housing initiatives.
